The guy in the F250 behind me tried to go on these trails and on the first hill he jammed his winch into his trans cooler/radiator and his rig was kaput... set off his airbags too, he went too fast downhill.


I actually did better then some of the lifted ones on narrow trails because they would always catch their wheels(that stick out from body) on trees and such.... Plus with bigger tires their turning radius was worse and their height meant some hit trees.... Like in this pic :

I sold them.... These did better then those because I can actually flex without rubbing and turn.... If I had the 31s then I would not be able to turn on these tight trails and would hit the fender well multiple times on bumps. Those lifted jeeps on 33s+ were like buffalo and my XJ was like a spry little sheep in the tight trails.....

I had no issues at all with these tires.
